San Luis vs Atlas Prediction and Betting Tips

The Mexican Liga MX returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Atletico San Luis and Atlas square off at the Estadio Alfonso Lastras on Sunday.

The visitors head into the game unbeaten in their last five away matches across all competitions and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Atletico San Luis continued their fine run of results as they picked up a comfortable 2-0 victory over Pachuca last Tuesday.

Gustavo Leal’s men have now picked up three consecutive league victories, scoring seven goals and keeping two clean sheets since their group-stage exit from the Leagues Cup.

With 13 points from their first six games of the new Liga MX campaign, San Luis are currently second in the table, one point behind Juarez.

Atlas, on the other hand, returned to winning ways last time out as they edged out 10-man Queretaro 2-1 at the Estadio Corregidora.

Prior to that, Benjamin Mora’s men were on a three-match winless run, including a penalty-shootout defeat to New England Revolution on August 4 which saw them crash out of the Leagues Cup in the round of 32.

Atlas have picked up two wins, three draws and lost one of their first six league matches to collect nine points and sit fifth in the Liga MX standings.
